سودان (Arabic script for Sudan) (‏.سودان‎)

This TLD is the Arabic-script country code for Sudan. Sponsored by the Sudan Internet Society, it was designed to give Sudanese internet users a domain in their native script. The registry URL for registration services is domains.sd. The TLD is managed directly by the Sudan Internet Society from Khartoum. There are no special eligibility restrictions mentioned in the IANA record beyond being a country-code TLD, which typically requires a connection to Sudan for registration. The delegation happened in 2015, making it a relatively recent addition to the root zone compared to older Latin-script country codes.

The .xn--mgbpl2fh TLD (representing سودان, the Arabic name for Sudan) was delegated to the Sudan Internet Society on 14 April 2015. Its registration date in the IANA database goes back to 20 November 2012, suggesting the application process took a couple of years. The name servers are ans1.sis.sd and pch.sis.sd, the latter a common anycast provider used by many ccTLDs for global reach.
